5 months agoAl Capone didn’t go to prison for operating a racket or any of the numerous murders he committed or was involved with. He went to prison for tax evasion. This might be the closest we get to him ever being held accountable and I’ll take it. Hopefully the court understands this and gives him the maximum sentence knowing the context of his actions.
It’s a bit disappointing, but that’s just how things work.
Also, given that Trump has been comparing himself to Al Capone recently in his speeches, this is quite hilarious outcome.
OH WOW! That’s such a weird coincidence! Imagine the odds of that! /s
Of course they did. The thing is the way the law is written violates the Constitution by promoting an ideologically-loaded, outdated translation of the Bible used by more socially extreme groups.
It should be obvious to anyone this is an ideological grift and it is criminal graft too. These criminals need to be thrown in prison for this.
